You are really great at breaking down a turnaround , I get it when you do it because you take nothing for granted and show both hands pick pattern the whole deal .
The short answer is that is the first 8 bars of a blues progression and then the turnaround he just taught. Check out "Twelve-bar Blues" on Wikipedia. This entire lesson is about learning a turnaround. Every blues song you hear has some sort of rhythm. The most basic rhythm is built by deciding what key you want to play in (in this case E) and then identifying the I,IV,V chords in that key and playing them in a progression or order consisting of twelve bars. There are lots of examples on that Wikipedia page but a simple one would be: I IV I I IV IV I I V IV I I So in the key of E your I, IV, V Chords are E, A, B So you strum each of the chords 4 times in an offbeat or swing fashion to make it sound "bluesy" E A E E A A E E B A E E That is your basic boring blues rhythm and then someone can solo over it and you can add seventh notes to it by playing A7, B7 chords instead to make it sound better. But if all you did was play this over and over it would get boring so you replace the last line with different turnaround and it sounds more interesting. What he did was show the turnaround and then to give you a feel of how it sounds in use he played the first 8 bars of a blues progression and then threw in the turnaround he just taught. Hope this helps.
#3:45 What is this part called? What is being played here is the LAST four bars of a twelve progression, NOT the first eight bars. A 12 bar blues consists of 12 bars each with four beats, (often played in 12/8 time for the swing feel, Though time signatures is a lesson for another day perhaps) Therefore if playing the progression as shown in Scott W's post you would play I IV I I = 4bars IV IV I I = 8 bars V IV I I = 12 bars At #3:45 you are hearing V - IV - I - I Which are bars 9 through to 12 with the turn around played over bars 11 and 12 A chord progression is often written in roman numerals such as I - IV - V to indicate the chords played in any given key, this makes it very easy to transpose, therefore in the key of E you have a range of notes from E to F, G then A B C D So the I chord would be E the IV chord would be A and the V chord B as in E F G A B C D or 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 In the key of G it would be G A B C D E F so I - IV - V would be G C and D

Thanks. Just what I needed to practice the E blues and put some variety in it
I love your blues turnarounds. They're very handy to ornament 12 bar blues! Cheers from France! 🤗

and what chords are you using
what exactly is playing in the key of a chord mean
Rodney Campbell It means he's using the chords in the key of E, which for 12 bar blues, means the I, IV, and V chords, or E7, A7, and B7.
Rodney Campbell or more simply it's the key of the root note in this case E major. You know "Do Re Mi.. .starting at the E note.
non capisco inglese ma sei bravissimo riesco a fare i tuoi tabulati grazie mille

IV IV I I
V IV I I
So in the key of E your I, IV, V Chords are E, A, B
So you strum each of the chords 4 times in an offbeat or swing fashion to make it sound "bluesy"
E A E E
A A E E
B A E E
That is your basic boring blues rhythm and then someone can solo over it and you can add seventh notes to it by playing A7, B7 chords instead to make it sound better.

Therefore if playing the progression as shown in Scott W's post you would play
I IV I I = 4bars
IV IV I I = 8 bars
V IV I I = 12 bars
At #3:45 you are hearing V - IV - I - I Which are bars 9 through to 12 with the turn around played over bars 11 and 12
A chord progression is often written in roman numerals such as I - IV - V to indicate the chords played in any given key, this makes it very easy to transpose, therefore in the key of E you have a range of notes from E to F, G then A B C D So the I chord would be E the IV chord would be A and the V chord B as in E F G A B C D or 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
In the key of G it would be G A B C D E F so I - IV - V would be G C and D
I see what you did there Klaus
Hi Matthew, that’s great! 😉👍
